Apparently, South Korea is developing robots to replace native English teachers (and people in general it seems). While it's a way off before this happens, it makes you think - what's gonna happen to us? Thoughts?

But what if one is accused of molesting a student?! Will it be guilty until proven innocent, or can we just assume his guilt from the evidence at hand. Oh wait....wrong thread!
